This theory suggests that dreams are used to process the day’s events. Although my dream is not a memory, I can see how it can be inspired from my everyday activities. Usually this dream occurs when I am feeling overwhelmed, thus when I sleep, my mind processes the stress and worry from that day and portrays it in a dream. Through this dream, my brain is processing my anxiety and putting it into a more tangible form. This theory explains how dreaming is an opportunity for one’s mind to handle information that is subconsciously on our mind, and otherwise unable to be…

The ‘walk around with you hand in your pockets, soaking in the sun, planning in your head and organizing your mind’ type. Which, Jerome L. Singer talks about in his book, and called ‘positive constructive daydreaming’.
